IT has been too frequently the subje,kl ofjust' and general reprobation, that men destitute of the elements of the medical art have offered themselves as candidates for public patronage in the profession of physic. For the purpose of doing justice to the result of our studieS and experience, and to preyent us from being classed among those empiries whose imprudent pretensions have, unfi;rtuitately for society, been too favourably received , we bee leave to submit to the liberal and enlightened a faithful statement of our pursuits and ac quirements. After having received a regular medical educe. .two as the pupils of Messrs. Grinded and Blizard, whose leagues and practice we carefully Attenitad, as professors and sUrgeons of the London Hospital ; we entered ourselves as studertts in that justly celebrated school for medical acquire ment, the Royal College of Edinburgh, and were instruaed in the dilkient branches of anatomy, surgery, the theory and practice of physic; chemistry, nudwiscry, botany, &c. &c. by those eminent 'professors, Drs. Monro, Gregory, Black, Hamilton, Duncan and Rutherford. We trust we shall nut be deemetpresumptuous in saying that our proficiency and acquirements are not inconsiderable. having for a long series of years made Venereal Coniplaints, and the various diseases of Debility, the particular objett of our studies and practice, it wilt, we hope, be allowed that we have acquired superior know ledge of their tfeat mem andeure. In slight and recent Cases of infettion a peeled re-ostablishment is completed in. the short period of two days ; and in those of the utmost in vaeracy, where other psattloners have failed of success, a proper perseverance in op r plan of treatment ensures to the patient a safe and radical cure. Amidst the melancholy variety of disorders which are the effects of a habit long and most unhappily pursued by the youth of both sexes, there are m ite more alarming or more distressing than those deficienclES and debilities which fre ,quently.prevent or embitter the matrimonial state. TO such persons it must be a consolation to know that they may now, by a new and, infallible mode oftreatment, be restored to that greatest of all human blessings, a strong, manly, and vigor ous constitution. In all cases of debility, from whatever eat= arising, us well as in every species of venereal infection, we may' be consulted by patients of either sex with the great est secrecy and honour. 1-lours of consultation at home from ten to three, and from 6 in the evening till'io at night. Patients in the country are requested to state the particu lars of their ease; age, and general habit of living, &c. &c. in closing a remittance for advice and medicines, when the same will be given, or sent to any, part of the kingdom. To cosine that secrecy so essential to our undertaking, the postage 01 letters may be added to the account for medicines. CURRIE and Co. Surgeons, No. 1.7, Hattqp-garderi. g - Messrs.

PARLIAMENT. HOUSE of PEERS. THURSDAY, 'JUNE 'By a from the Coninions, the following Bills were brought up : ttie Irish Stamp Duties Bill, .the Six Millions Exchequer Bills Bill, the Whale Fishery BD, &c. ; which were read a first time. COMMISSION. The Royal Assent was declared by Commission to 33 Public. ,and Private Bills. Among the Public Bills were the Irish Loan Bill, the Spirits Duties Bill, the West India ituditors' &c. The Commissiooqs were, the Lord Chancellor, Earl Spencer, and Lord Walsingham. On the motion that the Stamp Duties Bill be read a first time, Lord HOLLAND rose to observe upon the ex treme importance and complexity of the measure. It was one which, in his opinion, deserved and re quired a minute and mature consideration. It was therefore proper the House should have it before them in a legible and accessiblaiforip. His Lordship then moved that the Bill be printedl Lord HAWKRSBURY observed r lt was not the vac tice to print .Bills . Of this snit •; nor did . he see of what utility it could prove to Live the Bill printed. He must therefore resist the motion. of his Noble Friend. Lord LAUDERDALE and the Duke of NORFOLK in- sisted on the propriety of haVing the Bill printed, as otherwise it would be impossible to come at n perfect knowledge of. its provisions, Lord Hiwitssautiv repeated his objections to the printing of the Bill, upon which Lord HOLLAND said, he felt it his duty to take the sense of their. Lordships upon the question, The Houk) then divided, Contents - . 16 Non-contents 28 Majority against the motion !CURATES' BILL. The Pettit& of the Stipendiary Curates' Bill having been laid on the table, . The BISHOP- of LoNnoti rose to move That the Bill be read a second time to-morrow. This motion brought on a short conversation be tween 1.,6rd Lauderdale, Earl Moira, and the, Lord Chancellor, during which übjett-tions were Ftartid"to Ihe gill, and complaints made against *so short a. no -- lice of•the second reading, the Bill not being pro perly. before the House until- this day. it was at length agrcc3 'flit the second readiug .o..the Bill sh(l . -ita nut take place until Mo:lthy. DISTILLER/ES. The Order °Ellie Day being moved for the second reading of the Bill, prohibiting - for a time to be limit. , ed the Distilling from Corn, • Lord BATHURST rose and observed, that it wls not necessary for him to detain their Lordships by any minute explanation of the measure now pro posed. It was one, which, when fairly considered, would be found highly avedient under all the cir cumstances of the present moment. The Country was now completely excluded from any supplies of corn from the Continent of Europe, and from Ame rica. A scarcity of provisions had been felt in Many parts of the United Kingdoms ; in Scotland, wts were scarce, and had risen in price; h Ireland the potAtoe crop had , in a great degree, failed, -which produced a greater consumption of corn, so that prudence diaated a measure which, while it Season ably provided against a scarcity in one platter, would afford relief in another, where distress had arisen from t superabundance of other articles. There Was now a glut in the market .of West India pro duce, which' proved highly injurious to the interests of the West India proprietor. 'lbis glut would b. relieved by encouraging distillation flum sugar, with out producing any detriment whatever to the inte rests and improvement of agriculture. He (mate! therefore the measare would be cheerfUlly acquiesced in. Lord SE LKznn was decidedly against the measure, on the groural that it would counteract the opera tion of natural catises; which, if left to themselves, would supply all the wants Of the Country. The Noble Lord supported his opinion by a variety of high authorities, who deprecated all legislative in. terference in agricultural and commercial concerns, as ulthvately mischievous, and always unwise. Lind llowi.No did not think that the principles so touch insisted upon by the Noble Lord who spoke last were at all applicable to the present measure:.--- It .was only intended as a temporary .measure to kind against a contingent Oil, and fo ensure a ro. salve OA. " Without injuring in the least like landed interest, it would •inaterially benefit the West India Proprietor, whose case loudly called focevery possible alleviation. Lord Sinsteirrit most willingly admitted that , !be Westindia Planter should receive every possiblpiW lief, which could not injure any other descripiteit of, the community whatever; he wished, how ever, the. principle had been -built upon a broadyr" principle, and with a view to a more permanent ob.' jeti. There were resources within the country, which, if properly improved, would render it whol ly independent of 4ny other nation'. • lie should, therefore, recommend the most serious attention its an enlarged improvement of our agricultural sya. tem. • • Lord,AcsastsimE was against the interference of Parliament in. agricultural and Commercial affairs:— It was a mistaken notion to imagine that the land under cultivation was nUt sufficient for tne' calls of the country. The fact was, that it was not seal ciently cultivated; nor were 'the farmers, under the pressure of the present burthens, able to beSlow upon it that perfeEt degree of cultivation ; but if half • die sums, that were sent abroad for the importation ofcorn, had been expondqd'ott the iinproveinent of agriculture, there would be now no necessity'ifyr a measure like the present, nor any appreheoiiitiOf a scarcity. He sheuld therefore recommend the adoption of some such Measure, which would secure the country against the dangers of . sc,Sr6ity, dWit t tending to the injury of uny particular class Of comMunity.„ The present Bill he must oppose as prejudicial to the landed interest. , The Dulici of MONTROSE and Lord DE VILLE suppofted the Bill, which was strotjy tughtd against , by Lord LkunaanwLH, who reprobateditsifrinciple, and deprecated its evil consequerfeeS On ttie,saitle principle as that laid dtiwn by Lora Selkirk. . Lord IfAwg.essußY ably teplied to alt the aign meats ..that Were advanced against it, and begged their Lordships to recollect, that ettperi,.!l,6:' and A referenceuithe statute book would most satisi.telorily shew, that it has been the uniform principle and pra&ice of the. Legislature to encourage and promote aciriculture. That being the, case, with wi At, j th * •• cc could the landed interest •now complain twat a
